Joshua Simpkins. The rural comedy drama “Joshua Simpkins’’ held the boards at Nevin’s opera house last evening. It is above the average of its kind, and the series of sensational features interspersed with first class specialties makes an evening pass pleasantly. The orchestra and band are very good indeed. The house was top heavy, though the down stairs was comfortably filled. A Cold Wave Coming. The Tribune received the following cold wave bulletin from Atlanta yester day: “Probably freezing temperature Tuesday for Georgia. Decidedly cold er tonight. Cold wave tn northern and central portions of Alabama. The temperature will fail nearly to freezing on the coast. Frost Tues day.’’ It was one of the bitterest nights this section has experienced on last evening. Shorter College Gossip. Several years ago three noble heart ed women of Rome extended helping hands to the city by animating young men and maidens, old men and child ren to give an entertainment; the never-to-be-forgotten District School, for the benefit of the two libraries, the Shorter College Library and the Young Men’s Library. These three ladies were Mesdames Rowell, John son and Printup. Since that time they have been known st Shorter as the ‘ ‘Select Ladies,” and held by Shorter in loving remembrance. One Case of Smallpox. Wyley Walker, who recently came here from Atlanta and who was visiting os Smith street, has a case of smtllpox, and it has been so pronounced by Drs. Harris and Hoyt. Sundav Walker was removed to the pest house, prepared some time ago for an emeigency. The’house he had occupied has been thoroughly fumigated, and the twenty-three people who were there with him, are under strict guard. Should any more cases develop they will be removed to the pest house at once, thus guarding against any spread of the disease. Church Was Packed. The First Baptist church was packed Sunday, and the excellent sermon of Dr. Headden heard with close attention. It is rare that every cine of the comfortable opera chairs except a few in front are taken on a day of such gloomy and threatening weather. Owing to the absence of the First Methodist and First Presby terian no services were held at those churches. William McWilliams sang a solo “At the Foot of the Cross” in a pleasing style and was highly com plimented. MR. GAMMON EXPLAINS. « What He Says About the Local Article in « Sunday’s Tribune. Mr. ’J.

Publication That Gives That Village Some Undue Notoriety. Editor Tribune:—An item published in one of your contemporaries of Nov. 25 does the village of Lindale a great in justice, and in reply will say that the deputy sheriffs were ordered out here by Dr. Fenner, of Bcczville. There was a great amount of cursing and using in decent language in the presence of ladies in the town of Boozville, and will say further that some of the residents of Lindale went out there and gave them a helping hand, but none of the trouble took place in o«r quiet village on Thurs day, Nov. 25 Will also say that we have two good bailiffs that are courageous enough to keep down any trouble that may arise, and if we should need any help ’Squire Powers or myself will tele graph Rome to send out the Rome Light Guards, Please publish this as Lindale has already as much as she can weli carry, and all we ask is to “give the devil bis 1 due.” The author of this piece is G.

THE ROME TRIBUN TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30. 18H7 MARK BANNA IS GONE Hon, Larry Neal, Distinguished Ohio Democrat, Visl's Rome, BE RAN AGAINST GOY- NUNLEY Was Only Beaten By Few Votes - If Fora ker and Bushnell Stand Together Hanna Will Be Beaten. Hon. Larry T. Neal and Mr. John Tomlinson two prominent citizens of Chilliootte, Ohio, were in the city yes terday. Mr. Neal is a politician of national prominences, and a lawyer of more than local reputation. He was chairman of the democratic delegation from Ohio to the National Convention in Chicago, which nominated Cleveland for presi dent in 1892, and a member of the plat form committee. He was quite a promi nent figure in that convention. In 1893 Mr. Neal was the democratic candidate for governor of Ohio, and had William McKinley for an opponent. Mc« Kinley was elected by about 20,000 ma jority m a vote of more than 1,000,000, and to his success in this election may be attributed in a large measure his nomina tion by the republicans for president in 1898. Mr. Neal visited the court house yesterday, and as Judge Henry was holding motion court, he met quite a large number of the Rome bar. Judge Henry surpended court for a while, and an informal reception was held. Mr. Neal.thinks that if Foraker and Bushnell stand together, and have sufficient nerve, that Hanna will be defeated for from Ohio, but that is a matter that is now “in nu bibus.” He thinks that the demo cratic party in Ohio is in very good shape and will carry the next election. Mr. Tomlinson who accompanied Mr. Neal is cashier of a bank in Chillicothe and a prominent financier. Both gentlemen spoke in glowing terms of Rome, and marked the many evidences of prosperity in our city, and the beautiful and picturesque scenery surrounding. Mr. Neal is a cousin of Capt. C. Rowell. Both he and Mr. Tomilson left at noon for Alabama, where they go on business. Elizabeth. N‘ J., 00t.19‘ 1896.
